Quick Summary
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), specifically NCO 16, Jackson MS Medical Center, has issued a Justification for Single Source Award for Architectural and Engineering (A&E) Inspection Services (Non-Construction). This justification, under FAR 13.106-1, outlines the rationale for awarding a contract to GEO Bancroft Engineering LLC for additional Construction Period of Service (CPS) engineering and architect support. This action is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB).
Scope of Work
The requirement is for additional Construction Period of Service (CPS) for engineering and architect support. This support was part of an original Statement of Work (SOW) and award, but funding was not available at that time. The services fall under A&E Inspection Services (Non-Construction).
Contract & Justification
- Type: Justification for Single Source Award (MPT to SAT)
- Set-Aside: Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB)
- Published: May 6, 2026
- Reason for Single Source: GEO Bancroft Engineering LLC performed the initial design. Awarding to another firm would lead to significant cost duplication for redesign and providing CPS services, without organizational benefit. Market research confirmed that other SDVOSB architectural firms would incur substantial costs to review and adjust another firm's plans. Sole-sourcing to the original designer is deemed in the government's best interest.
- Approval: The purchase is approved in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b).
Relevance to Bidders
This notice explains the rationale behind a specific sole-source procurement action. While the overall requirement is within an SDVOSB set-aside, this particular action is justified for a single vendor due to the unique circumstances of the original design work. Bidders should understand that this specific requirement is not open for competitive bidding.
